I wasn't really sure what to call this, but a bit of a strange thing happened to me yesterday. I was on the bus on my way to Newcastle to meet some friends for a few drinks and food. It was about 2.30pm. There wasn't many of us on the bus, me, a guy alone, a couple and a girl alone behind me. About 4 stops before the town a guy gets on, He sits down then after a couple of minutes he says "Oh god this isn't going the long way is it?" To nobody in particular. Nobody answered him. He then says " has nobody got a voice on this bus?" So the guy whose alone answers him and says the bus is going straight on. The guy then starts to have a conversation with the whole bus asking everyone if they have had a nice Xmas etc? Then he looks directly at me and says "Ive got a tip for you for tomorrow" Then asks me if it was Friday? Yes I said and thought il play along with this tip thing just to keep him happy. So I asked him what the tip was and he said "Its a horse in the welsh grand national, its called Merry king" Put some money on it. Its about 12 to 1. So this morning I was telling my bloke and he said put the morning line on, on channel 4 (horse racing prog) and as soon as I put it on there was Merry king lol. So my partner has just gone to the bookies and im putting a tenner on. Ive got to really haven't I? lol anyway the race is @ 2.35pm I think. Il let you all know later how it gets on. (will prob fall or something lol)
